FurAffinity (a furry focused online art gallery) is looking for funding after refusing to comply with advertiser demands. And oh boy are some of those advertiser demands are pretty ridiculous.

A little over two years ago, I successfully gaslighted myself into believing "hey if anyone can make money with Skyrim mods to fund their indie studio - it's gotta be you, champ." Sometimes, things do work out the way we want them to!!

we need to believe in ourselves as writers... but be careful. a new piece on self-belief, criticism, and whether you're -really- as indifferent to your audience as you think you are. gregbuchanan.co.uk/articles/wri... (my second article after leaving Substack -- shares much appreciated!)

are you really indifferent to what readers, audiences, and players might value?

preach

A popular meme, with a bullet note list: STOP DOING RAYTRACING
Light rays were not supposed to be simulated! Years of gaming yet no real-world use found for bouncing light more than ONCE! Wanted to go higher anyway for a laugh? We had a tool for that: it was called baked lighting. Yes please give me slightly better visuals. give those slightly better visuals at a cost of half my frame rate" - statements deemed up by the utterly deranged. Look at what big graphics card have been demanding your money for all this time, with all the decades worth of beautiful non-RT games in your backlog. This is REAL tracing done by real $1600 graphics cards.

What follows next is an example of retraced games with minimal differences.

"Hello, I would like to run my games poorly please."
They have played us for absolute fools.

Just some random screenshots from my survival horror game, BECROWNED. If you’re into industrial horror, dark fantasy, brutal combat, dark humor, and classic survival horror vibes, consider wishlisting it.

my pet peeve is game dev companies doing critical communication ONLY on The Place That Shall Not Be Named when they have perfectly fine communication channels ANYWHERE else

Happy FN P90 day to all my bisexual friends out there.

On July 20th, 2020, a Twitter user named "chris person" tweets a photo of FN's P90, a futuristic, rectangular gun, and adds the message, "(after meditating for 12 hours in a cave to think of the most confusing post about bisexuals) bisexuals fucking love the FN P90"

I'm about... 20 hours into the new WC3 campaign and it's more like a party-based RPG like Dungeon Siege, Neverwinter than an RTS. Don't be surprised if Blizzard ends up making a Baldur's Gate 3 at some point. It's really damn good 🔥 Or a Dawn of Warcraft. It's got the juice, baby.
